Greg needs more pace and energy. Like he’s on a mission to give us the best stories all morning. He’s still too relaxed and there’s often too much time between stories.

I’d love to hear slightly more formal setups from both: often there’s an assumption that we are as up to speed on the story as they are. They should always bullet point it or tell a story as setup first, then give their perspectives, then calls, etc. (Example below)…

I still hear some I Don’t Knows, although they are less frequent. Greg needs to know basic facts about the stories they’re doing. Also I hear Greg reading a little too much (and last week, speaking in gibberish as he was trying to read ahead in his own story)

I want more of Greg’s take, and especially Greg’s perspective on how I need to understand things that are going on. It doesn’t have to be direct opinion but it has to be “look, here’s how you have to read this one…”

Dan’s at his best when he’s showing me how something works. I want to hear that more consistently (Example below)…

I am hearing a lot of tech flubs. Sound not firing, wrong sound, etc. LOVE the sound but we have to get it right.

Audio Examples…

Setup of Apple/FBI. Good facts, but I want it tighter still, more of a primer of what I need to know on this story…
